% PURPOSE: computes Newey-West adjusted heteroscedastic-serial
%          consistent Least-squares Regression
%---------------------------------------------------
% USAGE: results = nwest(y,x,nlag)
% where: y = dependent variable vector (nobs x 1)
%        x = independent variables matrix (nobs x nvar)
%     nlag = lag length to use
%---------------------------------------------------
% RETURNS: a structure

%        results.beta  = bhat
%        results.tstat = t-stats
%        results.yhat  = yhat
